and separation of duties for each type of Oracle’s PeopleSoft Change

interface. BEAM Change accepts user-defined PeopleSoft projects
or updates provided by the PeopleSoft update manager.
Oracle Validated Integration
BEAM Change has achieved
Oracle Validated Integration with PeopleSoft 9.2. To achieve Oracle
